my system configurations are:

award bios type: pheonix award bios v6.00pg
two sdram chips 128mb pc133 each
80 gb harddisk

Change the little coin size CMOS battery in ur mobo.
Thats the solution

There is no problem in ur mobo or nething, so don't worry...

Till then u can press F1, no problem.
But all the BIOS settings will be set to their defaults values and time also...

It can be used thru out ur system life

Actually if u pull out the battery, even then ur system will boot and work w/o ne problem!

But its advisable to replace it with a new one...

Yes your comp will work without the battery but remember when you create new MS Word file a time stamp is also created for it and u may face problem in the future with your documents not opening in your friends comp. So, better replace the battery
